Cape Minstrels

Cape Minstrels, 2nd new year’s parade. They are a noisy and colourful spectacle to watch, but the organization is poor. You can stand around for hours and see a few groups come past. Then there is nothing for a while, and then another group.

    They are a very colourful group of people (over 14000 in the parade, which lasts for about 10 hours)
